I don't have pre-conference-conference-post season breakdown for Sims. Howard is clearly a better scorer. They are comparable on the boards. Frank's overall assist rate is higher but that's inflated by what he did in the pre-conference season. I doubt Sims had as big a difference. Of course Frank's undisclosed injury may have been a factor there. The same is true of the steals rate. Frank got his hand on a couple more shots. Sims didn't shoot much but didn't miss much, (his scoring average looks better when you look at the number of misses). Z didn't get to the line much but didn't miss much. He had fewer turnovers and considerably fewer fouls as a senior, (usually a measure of your own turnovers and how well you are playing on defense. He had fewer positives but far fewer negatives.

Still, Howard's net points, offensive efficiency and floor game are very similar to what Sims had as a senior, suggesting that he might be able to become that type of player as he heals and matures.
